Reseña del editor:
Zoe Hayes is a single mother of an adopted (and adorable) little girl, and works as an art therapist in an institute for seriously deranged patients. One day she finds a piece of litter that turns out to be a human finger, complete with red nail polish-she soon learns someone is dismembering Philadelphia's terrified nannies. One of Zoe's neighbours (but which one?) seems to be a serial killer. Zoe and a mysteriously scarred, detective named Nick Stiles team up to catch the killer when Zoe suddenly becomes the prey.
